SEASONAL COMPARATIVE STUDY OF KANOI PAPER MILL EFFLUENT IN REFERENCE OF PHYSICO-CHEMICAL AND HEAVY METALS

In order to ascertain the degree of various pollutants in Kanoi Paper mill effluent of Bilaspur district (C.G.) India. We have taken minor research project. For attained to this purpose, we have selected eight sampling sites; Four SW and four GW sources. Collected samples (Premonsoon, Monsoon and Postmonsoon 2012) were analyzed for physico-chemical special chloride and phenolic compounds and heavy metals viz: Fe, Zn, Cu and Mn. The observed results were seasonally compared and with standard value stipulated by water monitoring agency: WHO (2011) and BIS (2012). The phenol, Chloride and Fe were detected from above the excessive permissible level in all seasons; Premonsoon (Phenol; 75 ppb, Cl; 516 mgL(-1), Fe; 14.55 mgL(-1)) Monsoon (Phenol; 69 ppb, Cl; 516 mgL(-1), Fe; 10.11 mgL(-1)) Postmonsoon (Phenol; 71 ppb, Cl; 521 mgL(-1), Fe; 10.17 mgL(-1)). The water sources surrounding the Konai paper mill are not suitable for agricultural and industrial purpose.
